When do your students engage in argumentation?
argument - an exchange of different views
looking at something from a different perspective
challenging someone’s opinion
positives and negatives
when they are discussing the outcomes of a science experiemt
when they are comfortable with some of the base knowledge-have to have some students will but others won't
need to know enough when they have an understanding
if it is coming from a personal experience then they are more comfortable
planning an exposition text
when they are scaffolding into the topic- they have a framework of their thinking
when they are asked an open question
have different points of view
At what points do they have problems in creating and supporting a clear argument?
when they are not equipped with evidence, framework to follow, biased, evidence doesn't back up ,
when rebuttal is not allowed,
lack of listening skills, non active listening
not having a preparedness to understand another point of view
not knowing a logical structure
not having enough time to think
not understanding the topic
not taking it personally
What do you see as the strengths of theShowing Evidence Toolin supporting the further development of higher order thinking in your classroom?
